The experiment of charged particle collection experiment by bare electrodynamic tape tether was performed by using JAXA's sounding rocket S-520-25 on August 31, 2010. This was the first experiment of bare tether in space in the world. This paper shows the outline of the experimental apparatus and the initial experimental results of the verification of bare electrodynamic tether operation and the charged particle collection theory. As experimental results, Valuable data of electron collection by the induced electromotive force and ion collection by a space potential probe in space were obtained, although charged particle collection data by tether and boom were not obtained by a trouble of high voltage power source.
